5th Wheel LPG service - anyone?

[Oldskooladey]

Hi All
New to this, recently bought an American 37' Oylmpian with slide outs. Lovely, huge, bit leaky obvs!
Has blown air off which works fine off the electric hookup.
The Gas boiler is a little fierce but works. I need a mobile LPG engineer to service it, anyone know anyone
who can service an american LPG unit?
Any help much appreciated, based Lymington, New forest.
thanks
Ade

Be a good idea to give location.

There are relatively few dealers or engineers with in depth knowledge of American RV applainces. Whilst any good engineer should be able to do basic checks on gas tightness and combustion, spare parts if needed may be a problem. I'm sure that if you doe some research you should find an American RV specialist, and they may have the necessary detail knowledge of the appliances in your RV.

Your furnace is likely to be an Attwood unit.
There are several places around the country who can service your vehicle such as:

https://www.goldrv.co.uk/ which is the nearest to you

If you search American Motorhome service, Hampshire you will get some more options.

Still struggling to find anyone. Think its requirement for a blown air ticket and American LPG ticket???

Its a Robershaw unit (i can't work out how to upload images from my computer on here) seems the igniter is a bit temperamental, a quick look on ebay shows Robertshaw popular with mobile catering vans, maybe I should explore that route instead?

And apologies for confusion, I didn't put location on original post : (

thanks Ade

Hello Ade,

Robertshaw is not a make I have heard of previously, but have found this company

https://www.catersparesuk.co.uk/product-category/robertshaw-controls/
who are in the UK and carry some spares for that make.

I suggest you contact them as they may know of service fitters in the south of the country.

Unfortunately you are experiencing one of the problems of buying rare or specialised imported products.
